    I’m glad I never actually bought this game and used my trial for 10 hours as this was all I needed to miss out on my first fifa game in a very long time. I usually jump straight into career mode as for me this is the most enjoyable game mode, however this was totally broken and unplayable after a couple of games, it’s disgraceful the state career mode is on release.

Of the few hours I played in this game mode there was very little improvements and it got stale very quickly. I also noticed in career mode and seasons that none of the squads bar FUt are updated which again is disgraceful EA have had at least 3 weeks to do something simple that totally breaks immersion. I played fut for the remaining hours of my trial which was just rage inducing the match making putting my full 11 of bronzes vs someone with a 85 rated team is mind blowing terrible connection. The gameplay was fun for the first 5 games or so then that’s when all the typical b.s started, they’ve ruined set pieces again with the new aiming mechanic. The passing is somehow worse than it was in fifa 19 with at least 4/10 passes going no where near where I wanted, the AI that they said they have improved have not they stand there doing nothing not exploiting any space. Overall there is far too many issues with the game at launch, no major improvements to single player since FIFA 14 and terrible arcadey gameplay that gets boring after 5 games.… Expand

    Literalmente o mesmo conteúdo dos FIFA anteriores, mas com um novo modo sem graça que não chega nem perto de FIFA Street.

    Career mode is slow and broken. Every time I edit a player, their position changes. The menu in career mode is laggy and slow. No latest squads on and no new champions League groups.

    I made a meta critic account just to rate this, why did i buy this **** Bugs ontop of bugs no changes to career mode for who knows how many years in a row now. All they care about is milking ultimate team for everything its worth. I even lost connection to the server in volta losing all my progress in thw comp, why do i need to be connected to a server for something that is a singleplayer mode

    Releasing an incomplete and broken game after months of hyping it up. Tons of bugs. No immediate fixes. Can't even get the squads updated even though it's been a month since the transfer window closed. What was the point of pre-ordering the game? EA doesn't care. £60 down the drain.

    Poor excuse of a career mode, so many bugs it's not worth touching till they patch it, game has currently been available to early access over a week and there has been no significant career mode party whilst there have been big FUT patches.... For obvious reasons

    Career mode is absolutely broken with no realism. Marketed bug fixes are not implemented in the final game, this is FALSE ADVERTISING. Absolute disgrace.

    Sad that the gameplay is actually good this year.
    EA better fix this or many will switch to PES next year

    Career mode is plagued with plenty of bug including Manchester City playing their 5th squad and finishing in relegation zone. Gameplay overall is too slow with minimal reactions. All they want is to make money from FUT. Worse than Fifa 19

    Career mode has somehow gotten worse and new features EA promised us consumers simply do not work at all, and there are more game-breaking bugs and glitches than ever. It's clear this game went through absolutely ZERO testing and EA just threw this piece of **** out to make some more money

    The game has definitely taken a step back in my mind. Although the game has a slight more realistic feel when it comes to the pace and style of the game it is ruined by one Werner or Salah run. It does not matter if you set your defense to sit back farther or to pinch in giving away the outside of the field, or vice versa to stay wide giving away the side lines, this game demands the ability to stop every ball into space and you simply cannot. And I know someone is going to read this and blab about how easy it is to solve that and you know?.. good for you guy because I cannot afford to buy the fastest and best CB and I'm definitely not going to throw my money away for EA.

    More importantly they have once again done almost nothing to fix the career mode as many of these other reviews say. None of us care about the press conferences or the ability to change what our manager looks like. While they are nice added touches its like not a single person has ever read any complaints.

    The one thing that I think I will disagree on with many players is the pro clubs. Most people like the changes that were made here but I have to say I think its cheap to just give everyone an 80 to start off. Not that having to start in the high 60s was that desirable back in fifa 12 or 13 but it was for sure better than having to put in no work at all.

    Basically, the game is 1000% geared towards those that are willing to throw away money and do not want to put work into the game like they used to. I hope that pisses people off but I know there are some older players out there that agree with me.    … Expand

    Game play seems fun, I guess, but given that I buy the game for Career Mode, the game is nothing short of a shambolic disaster. Pretty much unplayable. I mean you can, but it is pointless if you want to progress, which is the entire point of the mode.

    But hey, it's not FUT, there are no MTXs, so EA simply does not care.

    90% of the issues lie in Career Mode, the once main feature of past FIFA's from long ago. The game mode has long been forgotten about since the take off of Ultimate Team in FIFA 12, in fact, the game mode has arguably regressed over the last few years. Issues with long serving bugs that haven't been fixed, despite EA saying otherwise, lack of any meaningful new features & even features being removed. Just by going back onto FIFA 11 you can see a number of nice little features that helped the Career Mode experience to be that much more immersive which have inexcusably been removed. Why? Ultimate Team is why. Why spend the man hours making a good single player game mode when you can instead push everybody towards your game mode that earns you billions every year? EA don't care about the people that either don't want to spend £1000's on packs or a considerably large amount of your free time grinding away.

    Where to begin about this year's instalment of Career Mode? Well it actually began quite promisingly. They finally announced a decent number of new features that had been requested by the community for a few years such as meaningful press conferences, dynamic player potential, player conversations & manager creation. This was generally seen as a step in the right direction for once. Then the game released & the Career Mode we received is practically unplayable due to the enormous amount of bugs with even the new features being littered with them. So far there has been around 27 reported bugs & we're only 4 days into the game's launch. Two examples of game breaking bugs include, teams being incapable of starting their strongest starting XI's resulting in unrealistic league tables (Man City being relegated is a regular occurrence) & editing players results in players having their positions being changed & losing overall as a result. This game mode clearly wasn't tested as it's impossible to miss a large number of these issues, & if it was, they turned a blind eye to them & shrugged them off as issues they can patch months later. Unacceptable.

    EA have at least now acknowledged these bugs & are 'working' on a fix for them, however they probably won't be patched until late October or early November at the earliest & that's being optimistic. Even then, there's no guaranteeing that these bugs will all be properly fixed. EA have a history of 'fixing' things only for them to not be fixed at all.

    In short, if you mainly buy FIFA for Career Mode then avoid this at all costs, at least until it's in a playable state which could take months. As a passionate Career Mode player since FIFA 07, I, what a lot of people would say stupidly, pre-order FIFA every year & despite the mode's shortcomings in recent years, still get hundreds of hours of entertainment out of the game, however I've never been more disgusted with EA Sports & a FIFA release. After spending £60 on a game you expect at the bare minimum to receive a functioning game, but for Career Mode players, it's simply unplayable. This is by far the most broken game I've purchased & maybe even known from release.

    Shame on you EA Sports.    … Expand

    Volta seemed like a great idea, until we only got half of it, after a few games Volta becomes stale, where are the online drop in Volta games or the Volta pro clubs, seems like half a game mode, even nhl has online drop in games, career mode is also flawed with top 6 teams in relegation and playing reserve players, needs fixing fast

    FIFA 20 is a better football simulation in overall compared to FIFA 19, but it’s still lagging behind its main competitor greatly. EA is losing the race to Konami, at least in this generation of consoles, where they used to dominate.

    FIFA Ultimate Team is once again the best feature of EA Sports’ game, and the main reason why PES – even while offering the best gameplay in history – will never be able to compete with FIFA. [12/2019, p.67]
